A home for the Plumier Foundation

The building fund has risen to an impressive $505,000! The building is coming together beautifully, but we are still about $85,000 from having it done debt free. As we bear down to reach the finish line on the building itself, please consider donating. Keep in mind that debt equals interest, and the annual interest on $85,000 is about equal to housing a resident or intern for a year. 

Emerging from the project debt free will speed us toward carrying out our mission of teaching craft skills on the highest level and transforming the work of young artisans. Emerging debt free will also bolster our sustainability deep into the future. Your contribution is not only helping us double our space but also significantly increases the number of craftspeople we can reach. 

WE are getting this done, but YOU will make us much more successful by helping us to do this debt free.

If you can’t afford to donate monetarily but have craft skills, consider donating a work of art or craft we can sell to raise money. 

As always, many thanks to all of you who support us and have given already. Your generosity has given us the confidence to move forward boldly. We couldn’t do it without you.

 

Construction at our new building in Saltsburg, PA is now at a place where visible changes are happening fast. 
July has been a month of volunteers, and the volunteers have really propelled us forward. During the month, volunteers painted the clapboard siding (Don't worry if you feel like you missed out, we still have a lot of painting to go.), painted and set the I-beam in the addition, and lent a hand with the packing and loading/unloading.
